When you are on vacation but you are not going anywhere, you can use this spare time in redecorating and remodeling your home. Or, you can start by remodeling your bathroom only. You do not have to spend a lot of money on the remodeling and redesigning of your bathroom. You should be aware of your budget and what you can afford. However, it also does not mean that you should not invest in your bathroom. You deserve a relaxing and cool space. And the good news is that you can do it all on a budget.
The very first thing to do is to estimate your budget and how much money you can afford to spend on your bathroom remodeling service. You can get a few cosmetic changes in your bathroom if your budget is low i.e. you can get a new sink, get a new paint for your bathroom walls and install some extra fixtures. If you have a good budget, you can change the tiles, get a new and bigger shower and add some plants. There are many bathroom remodeling ideas you can choose from and easily apply to your own bathroom.
Tiles
The tiles can get expensive depending upon the place you are buying them from, and the type of tiles you are installing in your bathroom. You can hire a contractor to do the job. Moreover, you have no need to get extra tiles and apply them on the walls. By minimizing the tiles, you can manage your budget as well as create a good impact by changing the floor tiles only. Or, you can also install a horizontal strip of the tiles and paint the rest of the wall. On the contrary, if you have selected an expensive tile, you can get a few of them and mix them with other inexpensive tiles to make a certain design or pattern on the floor.
Countertops
Many people are installing granite countertops these days. The bathroom counters are typically small and the investment in the kitchen counter is very low as compared to the kitchen counters. You can pick tan or brown shades or go for less expensive shades for the bathroom countertop. You can also save money on the countertops by picking one from the defective or imperfect selection. The countertops with defects have less price. You can be creative with the installation and hide the defect.
Many people have also saved money in remodeling their bathrooms by following the Do-It-Yourself profiles. You can pull off any style at affordable rates. You can also recycle your old drawers and use them in your bathroom after repainting them or cleaning them by the Toilet brush.
Paint Job
You can save your budget by getting the paint and applying it on the walls by yourself instead of hiring professional help. Paints give your bathroom a new look. However, the painting task is time-consuming and it can take a lot of your time. The painting needs precision and a gentle hand. You will also have to cover your shower, toilet, mirror, countertop and other items as well as the floor to save them from the paint. The paint swatches are hard to remove from the tiles and other bathroom items. Therefore, caution is necessary.
You should also keep the moisture level minimum in the bathroom as the moisture can cause humidity which can ultimately result in mold growth.
The Bathroom Fixtures
After you are done with the major tasks and still have some money left from the decided budget, you can update small fixtures of your bathroom. For example, sink faucets, drawer pulls, towel rack, cloth rack, light fixtures, and other fixtures can enhance the overall beauty and appearance of the bathroom.
